Following yesterdays anti-nuclear â€˜reclaim powerâ€™ protests at Drax power station in Yorkshire, campaigners in Bristol today focused on Bristol Airportâ€™s absurd plans for expansion and the harmful greenhouse emissions from air traffic, currently running at 700 million tonnes of CO2 per year in the UK.
